Kind of surprised I didn’t hear any of y’all clock Korra’s faltering during her hallucination in her 1v1 with Kuvira for what it actually was. It was a trauma response. She didn’t actively decide to stop attacking, she was having a traumatic response and not thinking once she saw herself, it was much less about knowing what was right and wrong. She may have finally got 100% of the poison removed, but you have to remember that the last time she was in the Avatar state she was basically in the most feral survival mode of her life due to her body trying desperately to keep her alive against that poison. Her avatar state became her inner demon, and not solely because she still had poison in her for all that time, it was a mental block.
Exactly! Korra's physical hindrance (the poison) may have been removed, but her mental block is not something that'll just be healed alongside the removal of the metal
I think this is a great cross over between Korra’s ongoing healing from trauma which impacts her ability to perform at her “job” in the same way and her trying to incorporate what she has learned over the years. She was always a brash, rush to action, bang some skulls type avatar and we’ve seen her grow in to someone who tries to be more measured and balanced which Kuvira takes advantage of in this moment.
It's not about Zaheer affecting her. She literally can't walked for a long time and even when she could....the poison still affected her so if course it's gonna affect her body. It's more about the mercury rather than Zaheer
I think it's important for Korra's journey and healing that she doesn't beat Kuvira with brute force. It's not just a matter of physical health, Korra's biggest enemy this season is her mental health. Her losing even when she has the Avatar state is crucial for her growth and realization that the Avatar isn't just a fighter but also a mediator
I LOVED what Toph said about the past antagonists. This is literally what defines all of them: they all come from noble places but were completely out of balance. None of them were “evil“ per se. And that whole thing with Asami and her father was absolutely heart wrenching in my opinion.. very hard hitting. Haha and Varrick the LEGEND 😂🎉to be honest first time watching I never would've guessed Varrick and Zhu Li would have this huge relevance to the plot and get one of the best side plot lines of the season, for me personally at least 👀 I just love that Korra is so different this season. Really shows her character development compared to season 1. Remember how hot-headed she was compared to now? She finally takes being the Avatar more serious in a way and acts way more calculated now. As of now it's standing in her way a bit but I really love this character development
Episode 4 is one of my faves. I kinda really love how Toph spoke of all the past enemies. How looking at them a certain way you could sympathize and understand what they wanted. But they went too far into extreme territory and became fanatical. Really makes the morality grey for all. Some great lessons again. Episode 5 sees Korra returning to the world after 3 years gone essentially. She not only hasn't used her powers much, she also hasn't exercised her diplomacy and power of persuasion in a long time too. On the other side I love seeing Bolin get more use to lava bending. As for episode 6. I always saw Korra seeing herself in Kuvira as the fact that though she healed physically she still has PTSD. PTSD doesn't ever really go away, you learn to handle it with help. With Korra she was using her Avatar state for the first time since removing the metal, it can feel like bringing back the old fear from when she last used her Avatar state. Kuvira is a master manipulator, though I think Azula was better in her day. She knew how to say the right thing to get her way. Kuvira also is a master bender in her own right. Korra wasn't just dealing with an average punk. But it does feel like she isn't at 100% with her strength. She needed more time in personal recovery, especially directly after getting the last bit of poison out. But she doesn't have time. Also got to show love to Varrick being Varrick. He may be eccentric but he is a genius. Love his connection to Bolin.
I want yall to remember Korra has been out of commission for 3yrs. The first year she was learning to walk again and the following years relearning everything she'd learned in her 17yrs of being Korra/the Avatar. That's not a small feat. And just when she's trying to come back everyone is relying on her to be who she used to be & she's no longer that person. So it's not only mental but its also physical as well. She's not as quick or forceful like she used to be. Add in the metal and mental block. It's a lot. So it's not just the poison, it's everything. Every enemy Korra has had has waged a physical war on her but moreso a spiritual one and we know the spiritual side is a difficult one for Korra. So she's been bested at a level she hasn't even mastered. So instead of running in and being a brute force Avatar (her past self), she's trying to rely on the spiritual side of herself which is gonna be difficult when she's dealing with someone who is just like she used to be, brute force.
When I was rewatching season 4 episode 4 the lesson made a huge impact on me mentally. I was struggling with stuff that had happened to me growing up and at the time i was struggling to accept and move on with what happened, but then i came back to this episode and it started my journey of healing. I think this was a great episode and im glad toph was the one to give it.
What I love about these episodes is that you can see that Su is still a spoiled child at her core. Everything has to go her way because she wants to. On the surface she seems nice, but if you really look into her character she never outgrew her awful attitude, she just learned to control it better.
I mean that's an oversimplification for sure. We even saw with Yi that if a city-state chooses not to join up, she just leaves, with the knowledge that the situation will get bad enough that her help will be called upon as it gets more desperate *because* no one else has stepped up as effectively. She knows the situation is dire and that's the reason why she despises Suyin so much for actively choosing to not step up - the kingdom is in shambles and disarray, with the commonfolk suffering at the hands of bandits and marauders. And the person with the greatest amount of resources, technology, and manpower is doing nothing to help. Especially when Zaofu* is also so protected, it never saw the chaos and destruction that the rest of the kingdom did, which just pushed Kuvira further (and clearly half of its people as well, since they all willingly followed Kuvira out). Hell, knowing her backstory later, the governor of Yi trying to twist her reasons for wanting Yi as only for its ore arguably pissed her off as much as it did because that isn't why she was there at all. She wants the entire empire to be pieced back together and brought not just under her control but to make sure no place or people is left behind...like she was. For the vast swathes of the Earth Kingdom after the queen's assassination, it's not that they never had a choice whether to submit to her: the choice was her regime taking control or continued chaos and upheaval. I'm sounding like a Kuvira stan but really, that's what makes her a fascinating villain. She is almost the cosmic answer and "necessary evil" to counter what the Red Lotus did in destabilizing the Earth Kingdom. And she is a broken person herself who had to piece herself back together with strength and conviction and self-assurance, which then leads to cold desperation and pushing further and further into a dark place not seeking personal glory but firm control of a situation using the only thing she knows: exerting her strength and force of will, and the self-confidence that she is in the right...just like early seasons Korra. Hers is the path to hell, paved with good intentions - excuses made for her increasingly harsh actions as "necessary for the big picture good" just stacking up on each other until she is literally using a Metal Gear to forcibly take Republic City as it was previously Earth Kingdom land...ironically the same thing the Earth Queen criticized her father for signing off on as part of a colonial crisis between himself and Zuko.
"That man was crazier than a sewer pipe elephant rat" Okay first, that is among my favorite faces in this show next to Korras 'hey asami did you know Korra likes Mako' freakout. You can just see how haunted fhat guy is by the memory of Varik. 2nd, they have got to be making animals up at this point 😂
22:19 You severely underestimate how many people out there value brute force and gladly follow the most brutal leader they can find, taking pride in victories at any cost.
Thats the trouble with authoritarians like kuvira, they push the right buttons to whip up a frenzy of loyalty among the diehard within their cult of personality while also playing the center just enough to keep the average people from believing it could really happen here no matter how many red flags pop up. Its a shame Kuvira only turns up in S4. Bringing her in earlier, even in the background of a reworked S2, as a side character and letting this build up over the prior two seasons would have made her an even stronger villain.
I think she had two appearances in the last season, I believe she was one of the characters practicing metal bending with the cables and metal 'flowers' when Korra first goes to Zaofu to recruit Opal as an airbender, probably one of the benders who tried to stop the attempt to abduct Korra then too, and Kuvira was one of the people who fought at the Air Temple to save the airbenders from the Red Lotus.
you are correct. it'd have been nice to see her a bit more in the front of season 3 instead of just the background. i think we never heard her name until the last episode but a couple of more obvious placements would have been good. one of those scenes are completely forgettable and the other one was kinda in your face. at least they semi set her up i guess. @@rampantkitsune450
These episodes solidified to me that I really don't like Sui. She's done a lot of good yes and she's a good parent but she's not a good person. She never actually apologized to Lin for what she did. Yes they made up but there was never a "I'm sorry I scarred you for life and hurt your relationship with mom" said. But that's just a small frustration on my end. The main issue is in these episodes. She's told that the Earth Kingdom is in anarchy. People are rioting, stealing or destroying valuable historical goods, starving and crime is rampant. A council of the world leader tells her "We need someone of your pedigree and skills to help bring back peace and order to the Earth Kingdom. People are dying and suffering." And she rejects a job she's fully capable and fully able to do because it would be "wrong" to try and claim power. Like, Lady, you're not "claiming" power, you're not conquering a defenseless state and naming yourself Queen. You're asked to "take" up the mantle as a symbol of restoration, stop all the chaos that's happening and bring peace back to the innocent people of the Earth Kingdom. But she didn't. Because of some weird moral hangup that far as I can tell is irrelevant to what is going on. So instead Kuvira took up that mantle. She clearly would've been fine being the right hand to Sui as long as she actually tried to help bring back peace to the Earth Kingdom. But instead she had to do it, be corrupted by power and because she didn't have the pedigree and renown of a Beifong become a tyrant rather than unifier. I don't blame Kuvira for not wanting to hand the power back to Prince Wu after she spent three years building the Earth Kingdom back up from rubble. He'd probably have driven it to the ground through corrupt officials while he was busy hosting orgies.
That her actions were so predictable to Kuvira shows she never has changed either. It's just like S3 when she lies to Lin about keeping Korra in the city, then helps her run away behind Lin's back
They did really well with this series portraying Korra with PTSD . Zaheer was the first time she came that close to death and it put fear into her. So all the visions are her PTSD flaring up. I was glad they didn't just gloss over it right away.
AHHHH Can’t wait to see you guys finish it all, I’ve been with you since the first episode of ATLA and loved every reaction! Love all your different insights and perspectives, and it will be bittersweet when you finish!
I'm sure i said it before but i love that you guys have enjoyed this show all around. It has it's issues here and there but overall it is an amazing show in it's own right. I always thought it's bs to constantly compare it to ATLA because ATLA is a damn near perfect show that nothing can ever compare to. Love the reactions guys ❤
Mason you can’t be fr 😭 Amon (Noahtok) n Tarrlok both died end of season 1 lmao remember Tarlok n him was going away ona boat but Tarrlok felt there was no need for them anymore especially they we’re literally becoming what their dad Yakone was 💯 so Tarrlok sacrificed himself including Noahtok n you can see he noticed cuz he heard the electric glove n shed a tear before it all blew up 🙏
“We didn’t see Amon go” he literally blew up with his brother 🤣 you don’t come back from a point blank explosion to your entire body in the middle of the ocean 😅
not a great example since weve literally seen Zuko and General Iroh both survive point blank explosions to their entire body in the middle of the ocean. that said i do agree that its fairly obvious that they died but its a kids show so thats about as dark as they were allowed to be.
You’re great Quinn, but how does us watching the boat blow up WITH THEM CLEARLY ON IT not seeing Amon go? Did you want to specifically watch Amon blow up?
i thought season 4 was season 2(except last episode) and the sprit world arc was 4th. guess it wasnt a bad decision to follow this series too. thks for the recap.
Nice reaction!! a lot of the comments are on point, as usually, and although the battle of zaofu is a hard episode to watch because the avatar is defeated it still makes for a great season 👍👍
Spoiler kinda? I wish you guys could review the korra comics just because unlike the OG Gaang comics it wasn't made to connect to the sequel. There's gonna be a sequel but they couldn't have fathom that when they released those. And I love them cuz they continued where this will end.
Out of all the villains of this show, kuvira irritated me the most. she was nothing but a wannabe dictator masking her hunger for power with a false sense of virtue and duty. Atleast ozai owned the fact that he was messed up. Also, the protagonists let her get away with way too much. Tenzin, lin or even suyin could have ended this in episode 3 the moment she refused to give up power. In my opinion they can all take her in a 1v1 fight.
"she was just defending herself" echoing season 2, we have yet another military force trying to take over a sovereign nation and korra seeking to rationalize it...theyre at WAR, these are WAR tactics...these are some of my biggest issues with the writing of korra, its just not how any outside observer would see it, doubly so as the AVATAR
Is Su's city a sovereign nation though? 20-30 years ago it was indisputably part of the Earth Kingdom so what gave Su the right to create her own city with herself as the top authority there? That, in and of itself, is a rich person just invading, taking control of part of a sovereign country, & deciding to keep it for herself. Like if Trump decided Mar-a-lago was its' own country that he was the only authority in, would we really argue if the U.S. military eventually tried to take it back from him? From Kuvira's perspective she's just taking the city back from a civilian who overstepped her authority in trying to permanently carve it out of the Earth Kingdom.
@@6agenthawk Ok, but one leader being okay with it for whatever reason (I'm guessing Su kicking back $$$) doesn't somehow make it legitimately its' own country. If Ron DeSantis okay'd Trump to say Mar-a-lago was its' own separate country that doesn't actually make it so.
This is interesting so far. What was your reaction to these episodes for Korra?

Season 2
Bolin: You named your battleship after your assistant?
Varrick: Of course! They're both cold, heartless war machines!
7:32 I love how u can see Korra isn’t as muscular , it’s a nice visual that ties into how much Zaheer affected her
Well she was stuck in a wheelchair for a while, and had mercury traces all over her body, that got to reduce muscle mass
It's not about Zaheer affecting her. She literally can't walked for a long time and even when she could....the poison still affected her so if course it's gonna affect her body. It's more about the mercury rather than Zaheer
@@Kanamo4781 yes but I’m saying it’s a nice attention to detail as it adds another layer but with out actually telling u
8:45 shows it better. She really did lose muscle mass and they showed it well

Great potrayal on how ptsd works which the syndrome didn’t healed in one night. The struggle is real.
I love Mason's desire for Amon to come back! 😆😅😂😂😂

She's so predictable in her lies that kuvira easily caught her. She certainly did not learn
Somebody call the doctor because Badd Medicine is back🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️
That’s the Answer, this is the Appleton Oak, and I’m Mason Quinn!
I love both of you guys
I find it funny how Kuvira just goes up to world leaders in the earth kingdom and says “give me your land or give me your land”
I mean that's an oversimplification for sure. We even saw with Yi that if a city-state chooses not to join up, she just leaves, with the knowledge that the situation will get bad enough that her help will be called upon as it gets more desperate *because* no one else has stepped up as effectively.

Just one month and one week to go ... then we'll get the live action Avatar ... let's hope it's good xD

"That man was crazier than a sewer pipe elephant rat"
Okay first, that is among my favorite faces in this show next to Korras 'hey asami did you know Korra likes Mako' freakout. You can just see how haunted fhat guy is by the memory of Varik.
2nd, they have got to be making animals up at this point
😂
Yeah, they definitely weren't made up before
This channel's favorite word is
FAMILY!
I see this spirit vine weapon as a parallel to the atom bomb - both with a potential non-weapon application but first developed as a massive weapon.
Love your guys reactions! Can't wait to see more Korra
“Ruled by an iron fist” I see what you did there lol although unintentional
22:19 You severely underestimate how many people out there value brute force and gladly follow the most brutal leader they can find, taking pride in victories at any cost.
Short form, Korra has a bad case of PTSD.
this!!!!!!
I don’t think there’s really a non-bad ‘case’ of PTSD. It’s not something you just heal from like the flu. It’s a chemical imbalance in the brain.
No it's not. there is no chemical imbalance it's a natural reaction to trauma @@krystaloftheshores
@@mindeyethemasterscreen2712 But not everyone who experiences trauma develops PTSD symptoms.
Also, I have PTSD. I KNOW what it is.
@@krystaloftheshores I never said everyone develops PTSD I said its a natural reaction to trauma.
And that's great but it's not a chemical imbalance.
"GO INTO THE AVATAR STATE TO DESTROY HER": uses the most pacifist element

Meelo being Meelo is very Meelo. "I'm dangerous!" Silly little troll. 🤣
I love how Kuvira's reasons for invasion are pretty much the same as Sozin's back in the day. Times may change, but some pole will always be around
Ik right, there are some people that say Sui was in the wrong. That Kuvira’s actions are 100% totally justified and excusable.
Everyone laughs at Mason til Amon pops up behind them in a mirror 😂😂
These episodes solidified to me that I really don't like Sui. She's done a lot of good yes and she's a good parent but she's not a good person.
She never actually apologized to Lin for what she did. Yes they made up but there was never a "I'm sorry I scarred you for life and hurt your relationship with mom" said. But that's just a small frustration on my end.

It became a habit for me to have meals while watching these guys. What am I supposed to do when they finish this series 😭😭😭
sokka was right when he said tophs destiny is to teach the avatar earthbending, not only one but 2
> We didn't see Amon go.
First season, the boat, hello?
Next thing you're gonna say that we didn't see Clayton go.

Instant laugh when Answer did the gesture 23:15 😂
As always, my favorite channel with good content out
Mason you can’t be fr 😭 Amon (Noahtok) n Tarrlok both died end of season 1 lmao remember Tarlok n him was going away ona boat but Tarrlok felt there was no need for them anymore especially they we’re literally becoming what their dad Yakone was 💯 so Tarrlok sacrificed himself including Noahtok n you can see he noticed cuz he heard the electric glove n shed a tear before it all blew up 🙏
“We didn’t see Amon go” he literally blew up with his brother 🤣 you don’t come back from a point blank explosion to your entire body in the middle of the ocean 😅
Even if he did survive the explosion, he would’ve definitely passed out and drowned 😂
not a great example since weve literally seen Zuko and General Iroh both survive point blank explosions to their entire body in the middle of the ocean. that said i do agree that its fairly obvious that they died but its a kids show so thats about as dark as they were allowed to be.
14:05 *BACK*
I’m upset that the Korra/TLAB journey is almost over but I absolutely cannot wait for y’all to watch Attack On Titan. It’s amazing
the guy who voices asamis dad is olaying the firelord in the atla live action 🔥
Toph is Yoda. Korra is Luke Skywalker. The swamp is Dagobah from The Empire Strikes Back.
Because you're getting close to the end of LoK, I'd love to recommend "She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" to watch next. It's one of my top 3 shows.
You’re great Quinn, but how does us watching the boat blow up WITH THEM CLEARLY ON IT not seeing Amon go? Did you want to specifically watch Amon blow up?
Cover is amazing. My favorite frame and scene from 6 episode.
33:56 i woudnt say killing kuvira wouldn’t have been the best option
Toph is literally Yoda
Great reactions!
i thought season 4 was season 2(except last episode) and the sprit world arc was 4th. guess it wasnt a bad decision to follow this series too. thks for the recap.
Nice reaction!! a lot of the comments are on point, as usually, and although the battle of zaofu is a hard episode to watch because the avatar is defeated it still makes for a great season 👍👍
you guys should check out gravity falls!
Guys please please PLEASE react to The Impossible 2012 if not all of you have already seen it PLEASE
great episode. also,
new hunger games movie is out!!! would love to see your guys’ reactions!!! have a good rest of your week!!!!!!
Quick question does the gentle giant give hugs for free? 😂 He is my favorite reactor 😊
PLEASE react to Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
We have that answer on our community tab
@@BaddMedicine Can't wait to watch your reaction on Thursday! Hope you loved it as much as I did. ☺️
Guys you should try a indian movie Name DRISHYAM ..........one of the best thriller films .......give it a try please...
these guys gotta watch the bear!!!
Spoiler kinda?
I wish you guys could review the korra comics just because unlike the OG Gaang comics it wasn't made to connect to the sequel. There's gonna be a sequel but they couldn't have fathom that when they released those. And I love them cuz they continued where this will end.
People forget but she’s the last avatar …if she dies in the avatar state that’s it! No more avatar which is why avatar state the last resort.
Have you guys watched the two Enola Holmes videos? Would be cool movies to react to!
try watching the good dinosaur, sardar tamil, jailer in tamil.........
Please next react to these movie (Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio).
Out of all the villains of this show, kuvira irritated me the most. she was nothing but a wannabe dictator masking her hunger for power with a false sense of virtue and duty. Atleast ozai owned the fact that he was messed up. Also, the protagonists let her get away with way too much. Tenzin, lin or even suyin could have ended this in episode 3 the moment she refused to give up power. In my opinion they can all take her in a 1v1 fight.
Brahmastra.. Trailer Reaction Please 🙏
"she was just defending herself"
echoing season 2, we have yet another military force trying to take over a sovereign nation and korra seeking to rationalize it...theyre at WAR, these are WAR tactics...these are some of my biggest issues with the writing of korra, its just not how any outside observer would see it, doubly so as the AVATAR
Is Su's city a sovereign nation though? 20-30 years ago it was indisputably part of the Earth Kingdom so what gave Su the right to create her own city with herself as the top authority there? That, in and of itself, is a rich person just invading, taking control of part of a sovereign country, & deciding to keep it for herself. Like if Trump decided Mar-a-lago was its' own country that he was the only authority in, would we really argue if the U.S. military eventually tried to take it back from him? From Kuvira's perspective she's just taking the city back from a civilian who overstepped her authority in trying to permanently carve it out of the Earth Kingdom.
@@vadalia3860 the earth queen, who was VERY bent on republic city still being earth nation, didnt seem to mind the metal clan
@@6agenthawk Ok, but one leader being okay with it for whatever reason (I'm guessing Su kicking back $$$) doesn't somehow make it legitimately its' own country. If Ron DeSantis okay'd Trump to say Mar-a-lago was its' own separate country that doesn't actually make it so.
@@6agenthawkBut the Earth Queen was gone. The monarchy was toppled and replaced by a military junta.
@@mrdankhimself are you suggesting the metal clans city existed for less than 3 years??
Please please please reaction to leo movie❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂❤
Also - Love the fact that Kuvira is voiced by Robin Williams daughter. :)
